Welcoming Linda Gitau (Keke) to ETCO & Feeding Program.
The initiative benefited over 300 people, from children to the elderly, providing both food and support. The partnership between ETCO and UAF, especially with the SE Nairobi branch, was crucial to the program's success, demonstrating the power of collective efforts in meeting community needs.
ETCO deeply appreciates this fruitful collaboration and looks forward to future joint efforts to positively impact society. The success of this feeding program highlights the importance of partnerships and the potential for continued influence when organizations unite for a common cause. Reflecting on this achievement, ETCO and its partners are inspired to seek new opportunities for community outreach and to strengthen their commitment to helping those in need.

Early Lunch at ETCO
Diving deeper into the year with our children feeding program, yesterday's session at ETCO was filled with warmth, laughter, and nourishment. With the dedicated efforts of our team and the new interns, we ensured that over 350 children, along with elderly and youth members of the community, received a well-prepared meal. The presence of the interns brought fresh energy and enthusiasm, giving us hope for expanded children’s activities and engagement. As we continue to grow, we remain committed to ensuring that no child in our community goes hungry, and that every Saturday is a moment of joy and connection.
